FalcoGer Posted March 20, 2023 Posted March 20, 2023 APKWS triggers missile warning systems in aircraft that have them (A-10, AH64, KA-50-3, JF17, etc), however the unguided hydra rockets do not. MWS work by using cameras to detect the missile launch. APKWS and Hydra rockets have the same rocket motor. So it would be reasonable to assume that either they're both detected or they are both not detected as missiles on the various MWS. 2
Northstar98 Posted March 20, 2023 Posted March 20, 2023 (edited) Probably has to do with the fact that in DCS, APKWS is classified as a missile and regular Hydra 70s are classified as rockets.
